The Varsity Field Hockey team bounced back from a 0-2 deficit to end with a 2-2 tie against Frankford yesterday. Jenna S. connected on a long drive to score first for the Braves. Hannah H. pushed in the Braves' second goal for the tie. The Braves defense, led by centerback Charlotte M., held off Frankford’s fourth quarter pressure. Great game girls!
